Have just had a frustrating couple of days, I designed a bracket on ’Tinkercad’ a while ago, it took 3 versions before I got what I wanted. Printed 3 copies, all perfect. This was a couple of weeks ago.
yesterday, went to print some more brackets but they kept printing the earlier version of my design, put the ssd card into the pc and loaded the 3 files back into ‘Curia’ and 2 are the same, the other is the second variant…………so how did the 3Rd and correct file get changed to the first version??…….I can load the 2nd version back into ‘Tinkercad’ and modify it to the design that I want but I am puzzled as to how the file got changed.
has Anyone else experienced this?
cheers
Dave

It sounds like have accidentally renamed or resaved an earlier version of the file. Did you create individual files in Tinkercad, or just update one version?

Indeed does sound like a version control issue. Best to save as Name_1.ext Name_2.ext etc.
